If you are a scuba diver, at some point you will need to buy a regulator. It is important to match the regulator you select with your needs in terms of how often you dive, the purpose of your dives, and the depth and temperature of the water you normally dive in. Fortunately, the dive regulator industry is a very competitive industry with lots of great products at many different price ranges. In this article, we will review the Atomic Aquatics T3.<\/p>\n

The Atomic Aquatics T3 is one of the most popular and well-reviewed regulators on the market today. We will take a closer look at its specs, features, performance, and compare it to some similar products on the market to see how it stacks up.<\/p>\n

What Is the Atomic Aquatics T3.?<\/h2>\n

The Atomic Aquatics T3 is an outstanding regulator set manufactured by Atomic Aquatics. All internal components of this regulator set are made of titanium, which is lightweight, very strong, and very resistant to corrosion. The first stage is a balanced piston design which incorporates Atomic Aquatic’s “Jet Seat” technology which allows for outstanding breathing response for some of the most effortless and natural breathing you will find on the market.<\/p>\n

The first stage is also environmentally sealed, which is a bit unusual for a piston design first stage,. This helps increase the longevity of the regulator by protecting the internal components from exposure to contaminants. Also, an environmentally sealed regulator is much better suited for cold water diving as the internal components are much more resistant to freezing. The first stage of the Atomic Aquatics T3 is equipped with two high-pressure ports and 5 low-pressure ports on a swivel cap for multiple hose routing options and improved ease of movement underwater.<\/p>\n

The second stage Atomic Aquatics T3 is a balanced valve design that uses titanium for all internal components with a PVD coating on the exterior. The second stage offers outstanding breathing performance regardless of depth or tank pressure. The second stage features a convenient and easy-to-use breathing adjustment knob that allows the diver to fine tune the breathing resistance of the regulator. The purge cover is soft, which makes purging this regulator easier while underwater.<\/p>\n

Another great feature of the Atomic Aquatics T3 is its “Automatic Flow Control” technology. This technology directs air automatically to the mouthpiece or onto the diaphragm which closes the valve quickly and automatically during your descent and ascent. The “Automatic Flow Technology” eliminates the need for a venturi adjustment control to prevent free flows. The second stage also features a silicone mouthpiece for optimum comfort and durability. Overall, the Atomic Aquatics T3 is an outstanding regulator with features and performance that are hard to match.<\/p>\n
